Abstract:Abstract. The main target of this research is to study the mechanical properties of the Nb 2 O 5 doped with alumina-zirconia composites. Pellets form samples of ZTA (5YSZ) doped niobium pentoxide in varied amount of 0 wt%, 0.3 wt%, 0.5 wt% and 0.7 wt% were prepared by solid-state conventional method with respective 4:1 ratio or alumina and 5YSZ. The effect of different dopant addition on the morphology, phase transformation and hardness was studied. Each mixture of the compositions were calcined at 1000°C foll… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
